Supplementary notes

Figures refer to sent payment transactions and are rounded. In 2014 the ECB introduced an enhanced methodological and reporting framework for payments statistics, in line with SEPA-related reforms and Regulation ECB/2013/43 on payments statistics. As a result, reported numbers of credit transfers and direct debits from 2014 onwards are not fully comparable with data for earlier years, and the visible break in the series mainly reflects this methodology change rather than an underlying shift in payment behaviour.

Card payments value saw the largest growth rate in Austria in 2024, with a 11 percent increase in transaction value compared to the previous year. Direct debit transaction value grew by roughly 5.5percent, significantly less than in 2023, while credit transfers, e-money payments, and cheque transaction value all declined.
